Much like Creationists hate to hear the term Evolution, so too should Evolutionists hate the question, “But what came before that?”
I read a very interesting article in Evan’s blog exploring the possibility of our universe spawning from empty space in another, previous universe. It’s a very interesting theory (odds are it’s probably wrong), but that’s not what I’m here to talk about. Even if it is right, what cracks me up is that some people would take this as a blow to Creationists. Proving that a universe spawned from another universe, still leaves you with the question of where the first universe came from.
Take any argument against Creationism, take out the matter or impulse that is involved in that argument, and ask yourself where they came from.
The Big Bang supposedly occurred because a bunch of matter became very dense and hot and then boom, our universe was spawned. Take 5 more seconds and ask yourself where that matter came from?
Primordial ooze might have spawned life, but something spawned primordial ooze.
At some point something had to be created to form what either evolved or was shaped in to what we know today as our universe. You can’t get something from nothing without some sort of intervention that goes beyond the physical laws that govern our universe…
